Fonts preview in English but Font name appears in Asian?

I have CC applications and all apps have the same issue. When I try to select a Font type the preview of many are in an Asian or South-West Asian language. However, if I select one the type appears in English. Since I am not fluent in whatever languages these fonts are previewing, makes it very difficult to get an idea what the will look like unless I enter type for every one.
I looked at the "AdobeFnt_CMaps.lst" and saw under "Ordering:Japan1". I don't know if this is a clue, but I would like to know how to sync an English preview to the English type.
The fonts I am using are Native Windows 7 and Native Adobe. I can pull-up the "Font panel" in Win 7 and, for instance, Adobe Devanagari appears to be in Devangari (if so a Language exists) but types in English. I realize the Font names certainly sound like an Asian or Mid-Eastern language, maybe, they are intended to not be an English font, if that is the case I would like to know so I can disable them.
1. Should the Cmaps be changed from :"Ordering:Japan1" to (Please enter correct answer here)?
2. Are these Fonts supposed to be the language in which they appear on the thumbnails and not and I should just delete them?
3. Is there some other fix?
4. Does anyone know where to get some free to low cost Web/Desktop Fonts?
Thanks

Perhaps it's some sort of incompatibility with Quicktime, which is the foundation of the iLife apps.
A workaround might be to create your menu background in Photoshop, using your new font, and export a jpg version. You'll be able to drop this onto iDVD's background (not into a drop box) and it will replace the existing theme background.

Unknown font name appearing in some styles

After importing xml and applying fonts with XML rules, there are some places in my document - typically, lines with nothing but an insertion point from a \r above - that have [No Paragraph Style] or an existing style applied, however, the Font and Font Style are [Times] and [Roman] respectively. I don't know where these come from, and do not know how to get rid of them.
So, when I save and reopen the document, I get a missing font dialog.
At first I thought it was only with [No Paragraph Style] instances, so I could solve by replacing those. However, it seems to be wherever an carriage return is added in the text at the end of existing styles. So, replacing all of a specific style with an existing will not work.
I need to find and replace all instance of the Font - and yet, I see from other posts that in InDesign CS 3 5.0 I cannot find missing fonts with a script.
Does anyone know of a solution?
Thanks for your help.

Nokia arte 8800 contacts saved but no name appears...

i have all my contacts saved with numbers in my phone, but when i receive a call or text only the number appears not the name?
phone nokia arte 8800 can any1 please help

Check to make sure the contacts are not saved twice in the phone book.
The same number may be saved but under different names.
If you have duplicates, you need to delete one set of numbers.
This is the usual reason for your problem.
My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.
If my posts are helpful, please give me some KUDOS using the green star on the left.

Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.

I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this الس but they always appear like that ا ل س

MS Word for Mac has never supported Arabic. You have to use other apps. Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
Sometimes you can make Word for Mac do connected Arabic if you are editing a document created with Windows Word.

Arial bold is loaded on my PC, but doesn't appear in the font picker

Arial is loaded but doesn't appear in the font picker window. I also get the message 'cannot find or create the font arial,bold. some charecters may not display or print correctly.
Thanks

Yes, it is an opentype font, installed i
n the correct place. As I mentioned before, I am having the same trouble with TrebuchetMS.
I have tried font applications such as font expert and suitcase, still no luck.
The fonts are recognised in applications such as Illustrator.
Thanks

I can't see the font names in the TYPE - Font pull down menu?

I can't see the font names in the TYPE - Font pull down menu? The fonts are in there, but I can only see the name as I scroll past each one - almost like they are white text???

view,
I believe this may solve it:
Open System Preferences and go to Accessibility. Next, select Display from the source list along the left, then check the box labelled Reduce transparency.
It was first presented in this post #15 by TheUlser:
https://forums.adobe.com/message/6854594#6854594
It has been described on this Adobe page:
http://capitalmacservice.com/font-preview-working-illustrator-cs-5-yosemite-fix/
It may also depend on the monitor, as it appears from post #29 by Loncar in the same thread.
Obviously, this also influences some other things so there may be a downside to it.

I tested on a device here and see the same issue using 6.0.40.1. I would consider this a bug and open an issue with support so they can escalate and have it corrected. It appears to be device/os version specific as I don't see the issue on Android 2.3.4 but I do see it on Android 4.1.1 and Android 4.4.2.
I am also going to open an issue with Engineering on this as well.

Below taken directly from the v1.6x API java.awt.Font class doco:he Java Platform distinguishes between two kinds of fonts: physical fonts and
logical fonts.
Physical fonts are the actual font libraries containing glyph data and tables to
map from character sequences to glyph sequences, using a font technology
such as TrueType or PostScript Type 1. All implementations of the Java
Platform must support TrueType fonts; support for other font technologies is
implementation dependent. Physical fonts may use names such as Helvetica,
Palatino, HonMincho, or any number of other font names. Typically, each
physical font supports only a limited set of writing systems, for example, only
Latin characters or only Japanese and Basic Latin. The set of available
physical fonts varies between configurations. Applications that require specific
fonts can bundle them and instantiate them using the createFont method.
Logical fonts are the five font families defined by the Java platform which must
be supported by any Java runtime environment: Serif, SansSerif, Monospaced,
Dialog, and DialogInput. These logical fonts are not actual font libraries.
Instead, the logical font names are mapped to physical fonts by the Java
runtime environment. The mapping is implementation and usually locale
dependent, so the look and the metrics provided by them vary. Typically, each
logical font name maps to several physical fonts in order to cover a large range
of characters.
Peered AWT components, such as Label and TextField, can only use logical
fonts.
For a discussion of the relative advantages and disadvantages of using
physical or logical fonts, see the Internationalization FAQ document.

Font name issue in Acrobat XI pro

Hi All
While checking the PDF font properties in Acrobat XI it only shows the font family name. Not the full name. In Acrobat X it was perfect. Kindly refer the image below marked in Red. The Actual font name is "Agenda Light Extra Condensed Italic", but the property box shows only Agenda and Italic is hi-lighted. The document font properties shows the correct name. Have any one experienced these kind of issues? Seeing the full font name is very important to me since I am in the position of QC process before print.
Your suggestions are most welcome.
Thanks in advance

What you are actually looking at is the text edit feature which is admittedly not all that robust in terms of how it provides access to fonts.
If you are trying to check the actual font usage for particular text, you should go to Output Preview and change the Preview mode from Separations to Object Inspector. Click on the text you wish to examine and this tools will show you exactly which font is being used to render the text with the full font name, point size, etc.

Minumum and Maximum pointsize in the active document with font name

hi
How to find the font with point size in active document and how to get the minimum point size and maximum point size used in the active document with font name
Thanks in Advance.

Okay, that does look good (without testing it). Does it do its job?
I think it can be made a bit more efficiently by not running over all text frames, but rather over all stories in the document -- a small change, the rest can stay the same.
You can also try turning the gathering of used data around. It appears you are now pushing every item immediately into your array, then weed out duplicates. (For my thoughts on the latter, see below!) It might be quicker and more memory-efficient to scan your present array to see if the new item is already in there, and only push when it's not. (Bonus points for a binary tree implementation -- the fastest possible way! But a linear search on the entire array, or on a sorted array and bailing out if you go "past" the current item, may be fast enough.)
(On Weeding out duplicates; you might want to skip this, as it won't be necessary for the above:)
Your function UniteSame sorts out and removes duplicates by comparing every item to every other one; then it sorts the array. An alternative can be to
1. Sort the array
2. Create a new empty one
3. Push an item of the original onto the new one.
4. Skip items of the original list while they are the same as the bottom one of the new list.
5. Until you run out of items.

Korean font name in CSS doesn't work

Korean true type fonts have two names, in English and Korean. For example, the default font of Windows 7 Korean version is '맑은 고딕' in Korean, 'Malgun Gothic' in English. In Microsoft WIndows, webpages with CSS which has Korean font name display right font, but in my Mac, Safari does not display right font. If the webpage use both Korean and English names in CSS font section, it works in both Mac and Windows.
For example,
body { font-family: 맑은 고딕; }
It works just in Windows.
body { font-family: 맑은 고딕, Malgun Gothic; }
It works in both platform.
Apple mail also has same problem. I have tested other browsers in Mac and only Mozilla Firefox display the right font.
Is this a some kind of bug?

Fonts not appearing in CS3 program font lists

Certain postscript fonts (ZapfDingbats and Rubino Sans) are correctly installed in Windows 7 and available to Microsoft programs (Word and Excel) but not to Adobe programs. That is, they do not appear in any of the CS3 Design Standard applications (PhotoShop, InDesign, Illustrator) font lists when the application is open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both the fonts and CS3 to no avail. I have added shortcuts to the Common Files/Adobe/Fonts directory to no avail. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I assume by PostScript fonts you really mean Type 1 fonts. (TrueType and OpenType fonts are every bit as much "PostScript fonts" as Type 1 fonts are!)
There is a known problem with the CS3 applications with all Type 1 fonts under all Windows Vista 64-bit and Windows 7 64-bit versions when such fonts are installed in the Windows System Font directory. The problem is fixed in CS4.
The workaround is to copy all the Type 1 font files (both the .PFB and the .PFM files - each Type 1 font has one .PFB and one .PFM file) to the Creative Suite's private font directory. Depending upon the CS version, that may be in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
Restart the Creative Suite programs you are using and the fonts should appear.
You may also copy said fonts into the private font directories of the individual applications (typically a directory path ending with the node name Fonts.
